easily to just get the person when making my
front cover.
1. Friends back garden
2. 4pm
3. 8/11/14

2. Medium shot
3. Camera
4. Middle key lighting
5. Dark tank top, Black jeans, Dog tag.
6. Me
7. Because I need to prove the real
emotions upon the reader from the
picture which relates to the content
in the interview to prove that it is
casual and goes with the flow.
Permission needed
Contact needed to be made (Evidence
of this?)
I need to make sure that I get permission for this
image this is because I need to be sure that who I
am using for the photo will give me permission to
take the photo.

Potential Hazards/Risks
Location specific
Why?
Room Might be in use for when I need to take the
shot so need to re-arrange the time and date of the
shot.
Screws/nails in the wall, loose bricks so
need to test the wall before shooting
pictures to decrease the risk of injury.
Weather can be another risk because if it
pouring down with rain then the shot
cannot be taken and prevents any harm to
the artist (e.g. lightning)
Location Recce

4. Pictures of locations I intend to take
pictures in
I have chosen the white wall for my front cover image,
this is because I can take the picture of the artist and on
Photoshop due to the background being white, makes it
much easier to use the quick selection tool and delete
the background making the image look professional and
appropriate.
I had chosen to take my DPS image in my friends back garden, this
was because I was choosing to ‘Repeat’ – Steve Neale 1980 the
convention of that image on the DPS. However the cultural scenery
of the image conveys freedom and space for the artist because
freedom allows them to take time off what they are doing and have
some time to reflect and rest.

5. Permission of images

6. Evidence of conducting an interview
For the interview I
needed to get with the
artist and conduct the
interview to the artist so
I could get the interview
for the DPS for
Revolution! And for the
rest of the article which
is on the Revolution
website as shown after
the interview on the DPS.
The interview however
went well as the artist
new what he was talking
about when I asked
certain questions about
him as well as the band
itself.

7. Legal and Ethical issues
HSE (Health & Safety Executive) - All employers should have plans in place to manage health and safety. If
you employ five or more people the plans should be put down in writing in the form of a health and safety
policy statement. HSE’s manufacturing sector works with the UK printing industry at a national level through
employers, trade unions, trade associations and other intermediaries by working with printing industry
stakeholders via the Printing Industry Advisory Committee (PIAC), Developing industry specific guidance,
Providing advice to operational inspectors on printing specific issues, Monitoring national health and safety
trends, Monitoring printing industry developments and agreeing industry standards.
HSE’s operational inspectors deal directly with print manufacturers in their local area by, Providing advice,
Carrying out inspections where necessary, Investigating accidents and complaints and taking formal
enforcement action where necessary. This part of HSE applies to my magazine because my magazine needs to
be inspected to make sure it is the best it can be and it is appropriate and not containing any harsh content as
well as the HSE taking complaints from people if the magazine does have inappropriate content. It is important
to visit the HSE premises often for example after every magazine has been published, therefore the HSE can
decide if the magazine is suitable or not depending on the content. The importance of visiting the HSE
premises is because they are a company who aims to improve health and safety of people, so by visiting them
after every magazine has been publishes allows them to see if the magazine is relevant for the target audience
and the content within it is appropriate.

Harassment - Journalists must not engage in intimidation, harassment or persistent pursuit. They must not
persist in questioning, telephoning, pursuing or photographing individuals once asked to leave and must not
follow them. If requested, they must identify themselves and whom they represent. Editors must ensure these
principles are observed by those working for them and take care not to use non-compliant material from other
sources.

8. Copyright Laws within Print Media – Intellectual property rights - As my magazine is going to be part
of the Bauer Media group the content of their site (including software, graphics, text, images, designs,
compilations, databases, targeting information, and the trademarks, logos, domain names, trade names,
service marks, trade identities, any and all copyright material (including source and object code), and all other
materials related to our site) is protected by applicable copyrights, trademark rights, database rights and other
proprietary rights. Bauer owns the content. Nothing in these Terms of Use grants the right or licence to use the
content except as expressly provided in these Terms of Use.
Competitions - may also have their own specific terms and conditions (such as the details of how to enter,
what the opening/closing dates are and what sort of prize you may win). Any such Competition-specific terms
and conditions will be made available by means of the relevant media as part of the website or in-print
promotion of the particular Competition. In these General Terms, we will refer to these Competition-specific
terms and conditions as the "Specific Terms". Where any such Specific Terms conflict with these General Terms,
the Specific Terms will take precedence. They may change these General Terms at any time. You should check
the website or magazine regularly for any changes which will apply from the date that they are uploaded. By
entering any Competition you agree that you will be legally bound by these General Terms and also any
applicable Specific Terms.
Copyright - Before producing my magazine you need to be aware of laws which are that I need to be able to
make sure that I have contacted companies and requested there acceptance to use their logo’s or images from
a specific website/page to use in the process of producing my own magazine. Another law is that you need to
be able to show proof of your acceptance of the company to use their logo so that you are not in trouble for
copyright laws and if you have proof of the acceptance then you can use that logo in your magazine. For my
magazine I will have the copyright logo just above the masthead of my magazine and I will do this by filling out
a copyright form and sending it off and then get my requested things under copyright. The content which I
intend to remain under copyright is the images I have used, the band logos and my masthead. This is because I
want the key parts of my magazine to remain mine and not allow my competitors or anyone use my ideas or
logos without my consent.

9. Intellectual property (IP) - The intellectual property which I will contain on the front cover and the DPS of my
magazine would be the Facebook, Twitter and Instagram logo. By containing the Facebook logo on each of the
pages for my magazine allows the readers to go onto Facebook and have a look at the page and if they like
what they see then they are free to like and dislike the image or posts which Revolution! Do. However by
containing the Twitter logo on the DPS as well as on the front cover allows each of the readers who read the
article to follow the artist or band which the interview is based around then they are free to write posts on the
Revolution! Feed and like tweets which happen or dislike them depending on what has been tweeted. The final
social media icon which I have contained on the Revolution! Pages is the Instagram logo, just like the twitter
one the Instagram allows the readership to follow the magazine, band or artist on Instagram and like their
posts and comment on them making Revolution! A top magazine from having loads of followers and comments
based on what is in the issue and what the readers want to see. To register a part of your magazine you need to
go through the copyright registration which is fast and has a low cost. This is good for my magazine because I
can get copyright on the images, content and masthead name on Revolution!. You can register through 2 ways,
you can register online or by post. The online form is a form were you have to fill in the details of your name
and what you want to be protected. However the postal registration is similar were you need to fill out a form
and send it to the copyright company then get your magazine protected through that way.

10. Data Protection act - The Data Protection Act controls how your personal information is used by
organisations, businesses or the government. Everyone responsible for using data has to follow
strict rules called ‘data protection principles’. For my magazine I must make sure that the
information is used fairly and lawfully, used for limited, specifically stated purposes, used in a way
that is adequate, relevant and not excessive, accurate for example the front cover image and DPS
interview is correct and professional, handled according to people’s data protection rights, kept
safe and secure and not transferred outside the UK so no one else can get anything from my
magazine to produce their own without the adequate protection which I need to safely secure
my magazine Revolution!.

11. IPSO – The IPSO handles complaints about breaches of the Editors' Code of Practice. They operate a new complaints procedure
that is designed to achieve speedy and produce a fair resolution for the complaints. They are able to impose new sanctions,
including the ability to determine the nature, extent and placement of corrections, when they are necessary in order to fix a
breach of the Editors' Code. The complaints procedure is overseen by the Board, and individual complaints are adjusted by the
Complaints Committee. To make a complaint the form is on https://www.ipso.co.uk/oxbxApps/app/complaint1.html as a multiple
choice form.
Privacy (Source: https://www.ipso.co.uk/IPSO/cop.html)
Privacy is key when before making your magazine because you need to make sure that you are not giving out any personal
information such as address, number etc. In order to keep your magazine private with all its information you have to consider
keeping the confidential information somewhere safe which no one is eligible to find out. However if you are subscribing to the
magazine to get every issue online or entering a competition privacy is key so that know one knows if subscribing online their
password or personal details such as address and age. Or if entering a competition in the magazine their information is kept safe
and protected so that it doesn’t get lost such as Address.
When producing my own magazine I need to be aware of copyright and privacy. This is because for copyright my masthead name
or logo is secure so no one is able to plagiarise it and use it for a product which their producing. However in order to make them
use my logo or masthead name I will need to be able to give permission to them in order to use the logo or masthead in their
production. Also I will need to protect the risk of copyright for the adverts based in my magazine because they will be all well
known brands and they have asked me to advertise them in my magazine so they should seek permission from users to use their
logo.
However for privacy on the other hand for my magazine I will make sure that you don’t need to fill out any key information in the
magazine so for the competition page I will have a slip which has to be cut out and sent of instead of having to right personal
information in the magazine and it falls out or you lose it and it falls into the wrong hands.
Accuracy (Source: https://www.ipso.co.uk/IPSO/cop.html)
For my magazine I need to make sure I am accurate in a majority of places such as the front cover and the double-page spread
(DPS) in order to make sure I am accurate I need to proof read the language used and edit it if I have to I need to make sure that it
is the best it can be. To do this for the front cover for example I need to make sure the position of the picture is just right and the
masthead and picture have the same dimensions which I need for the front cover. I need to make sure that the headline and
abbreviated quote are the exact dimensions and will fit perfectly in the place where I want them to go on the magazine.
Inside the magazine I need to be accurate in the positioning of the Image on the DPS so that it doesn’t overlap any text or doesn’t
express too much emotion. However I need to be accurate in the flow of the interview so it must go smoothly and make sense,
however all the language devices in the magazine need to be accurate in order to convey real emotion into the reader and allow
the magazine to express its real purpose.

12. Conclusion
• What went well?
• Through this learning outcome I have learnt how to create and analyse a location Recce for
the images which I will be taking for the magazine, therefore I can identify suitable places for
the images as well as knowing the potential hazards/risks which may be an occurrence whilst
taking the pictures for my front cover and DPS.
• Another part that went well was that I was able to establish the typical legal and ethical
issues which may need to be considered when taking the images for my magazine so I am not
going against anything such as copyright, privacy and harassment.
• Even better if?
• This learning objective can be improved by trying to add more detail were possible therefore
will make the other learning outcomes much easier to complete.
• Finally the last improvement which I could have done was to keep asking Mr Crafts to check
my work and make sure it has been completed to a distinction standard so that I can move on
to the next learning outcome.
